Hey, I am pretty internet savvy, but now that you have removed blues lesson 2 from the main page how do I easily navigate to blues lesson 1 and 2? I love the site but I have a hard time finding things once I have seen them and want to go back to it. Am I missing some kind of site map somewhere?

You can find all the blues licks lessons in the Riffs & licks section.

I really do appreciate you taking time out of your speed lessons to give us some blues licks. always helps us beginners stay motivated to be able to take a break from speed and just have some fun with some awesome blues licks. Keep it up!!!!!!

Blues 3 was just as much fun as blues 2. A little like Mary had a little lamb. GREAT stuff!!! Any chance of blues 4 having some double stops and a few triplets? Those are both something I need work on. Also, would it be possible to get the backing tracks on a downloadable Mp3 file? I would like to put them on my GNX4 and set them up on a loop.

Thanks again, Your lessons have inspired to be the best I can be! And in my best Austin Powers voice..... Blues 4, yes please.

Gabriel, this is an incredibly awesome lesson!!! Very inspiring! Its just a little bit out of my reach, which is exactly what I need. By extending myself, and forcing myself to practice it over and over, I feel I'm getting it. 'Marry had a little lamb' is one of my favorite SRV songs, very hooky. Any chance you can do a series of lessons on the whole song, I'd love to learn the whole thing, and not just a short riff? Thanks in advance.

I got the blues bad. Blues 1 & 2 I'm getting down slowly but fer sure. I have to go on travel for a week and then I'll look at Blues 3. The blues will be my summer project. Who knows maybe I can get a gig at Whole Foods supermarket! (Chuckle) g

@shellshock1911 - that chord is an E7#9 (or E7+9, means the same), consists of root, 3rd, 5th, dominant 7th, and augmented 9th - a great favourite of Hendrix, also used by Gilmour in shine on you crazy diamond

Hey GMC! Today we will continue studying the most used licks, chords, scales and rhythms in blues.

I composed this solo for GMC students in order to incorporate the Steve Ray Vaughan style in your playing and his most important influences (Buddy Guy, Jimi Hendrix. Etc). We are going to focus in his rhythm guitar work and his chord melody style.

This lesson is a twelve bar blues in E without a turnaround in the final of the measure.

Blues progression in E:

E7 – E7 – E7 – E7 – A7 – A7 – E7 – E7 – B7 – A7 – E7 – (E7)

Scale choices:

We will use dominant arpeggios (or dominant chords) and the blues scale. (Check blues licks 2).

Backing tracks:

You have three backing tracks at different tempos to practice the exercise.
